UTRAN introduction
UTRAN components
The UTRAN is composed of at least one Radio Network Subsystem (RNS). An RNS
covers a certain geographical area. It is equivalent to the GSM BSS. Each RNS is
composed of one Radio Network Controller (RNC) and one or more Node Bs. RNSs are
interconnected through the Iur interface of each RNC to form a network.
Alcatel-Lucent UTRAN
The Alcatel-Lucent UTRAN is based on the following components:
• RNC
• Node B
• WMS for the OAM part
RNC
The Alcatel-Lucent RNC is 3GPP-compliant. It is based on the Multiservice Switch
platform.
RNC main functions

The main functions of the RNC are to control and manage:
• Radio Access Network (RAN)
• Signalling between Core Network (CN) components and the Radio Network System
(RNS)
• Node Bs and their radio resources
RNC interfaces
The RNC provides the following interfaces:
• Iub towards a Node B
• Iu towards the Core Network
• Iur towards another RNC
• Iupc towards a Standalone A-GPS SMLC (SAS)
Node B
The Alcatel-Lucent Node Bs are 3GPP-compliant. The Alcatel-Lucent Node B portfolio
includes:
• Conventional unitary base stations
• Digital base stations
• Radio base stations
• Radio heads
• Base station routers
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Node B main functions
The Node B supports the following main functions:
• Network interface management
• Radio access
• Call processing
• Configuration and supervision
• Synchronization
• Performance monitoring
Node B interfaces
The Node B provides the following interfaces:
• Iub towards an RNC
• Uu towards a UE
• Interface B towards WMS

Figure 2-1 Alcatel-Lucent UTRAN architecture example
WMS
The Alcatel-Lucent Wireless Management System (WMS) delivers an integrated UMTS
management platform through which all Network Elements (NE) can be monitored and
controlled.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
January 2011
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
It plays an important role in providing the foundation of a complete end-to-end
management solution for UMTS networks. The WMS manages the entire UMTS
network, which is divided into:
• The UTRAN
• The Core Network (circuit-switched and packet-switched traffics).
The Access Network OAM manages the UTRAN part of the network.
Access Network OAM main functions

The Access Network OAM manages the UTRAN part of the network.
The main functions of Access Network OAM are the following:
• Fault management
• Configuration management
• Performance management
NSP
The Network Services Platform (NSP) is a graphical user interface to the Access Network
providing a common platform for navigation and control. The NSP interfaces with the
NEs through a Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA). This
vendor-independent architecture links computer applications across different networks.

9100 MBO1 introduction

Introduction
The 9100 MBO1 operates in the UMTS FDD band I (2100/1900 MHz band).
The Alcatel-Lucent 9100 MBO1 solution improves flexibility for deploying mobile
broadband outdoor base stations in space-constrained locations. The 9100 MBO1 offers
Macro Node B capabilities in an easy-to-install configuration.
The 9100 MBO1 provides for the UMTS system:
• The means of communication between a User Equipment (UE) and a network using
Transport Channels
• Physical layer channels, which are necessary to synchronize the downlink and
perform cell selection/reselection and handover preparation
• Measurement information to the RNC for radio resource management (handover,
power control)
The 9100 MBO1 delivers high UMTS radio performances and supports the enhanced
High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) and High Speed Uplink Packet Access
(HSUPA) solutions through easy software upgrade. The 9100 MBO1 is ready for High
Speed Packet Access plus (HSPA+) and Long Term Evolution (LTE).
Two versions of 9100 MBO1 are available: the AC version and the DC version.

9100 MBO1 features and functions

The 9100 MBO1 supports the following functions:
• Radio access and modem
• Call processing
• Performance monitoring
• Network interface
• Configuration/supervision
• Synchronization
Radio access and modem

These functions are the following:
• Modulation, frequency up-conversion, amplification
• Reception, frequency down-conversion, digitizing and demodulating the radio signal
Radio access and modem is mapped on the Transmitter Receiver Duplexer Unit (TRDU).
It is a frequency-dependent module compatible with the full UMTS FDD Band I
(2100/1900 MHz):
• Downlink: 2110-2170 MHz
• Uplink: 1920-1980 MHz
Call Processing (CallP)

The call processing function is in charge of the radio resource management inside the
base station. This function manages the UMTS services (described in 3GPP standards)
and the internal services used for configuration and implementation purposes.
The call processing function is also in charge of:
• Common channel management, which includes setup, release, and modification
procedures
• Dedicated channel management, which includes setup, release, and modification
procedures
• Cell management, which includes setup, deletion, and modification of a cell
• Power control for controlling UE power emission
• Softer handover, in which a single base station manages the cells in communication
with the UE
Call processing is mapped on the Core Controller Module (CCM) and the Channel
Element Module (CEM). It supports multiple CEM. Multiple CEM (or multi-CEM)
allows to use several CEMs for call processing management. In the 9100 MBO1, call
processing is mapped on the xCCM-U and xCEM-U modules.

Performance monitoring
The performance monitoring function is in charge of collecting performance
measurement data from the network interface function and from the
configuration/supervision function.
The measurement data is used to calculate and report performance data to the RNC for
traffic control and to the WMS for network operation and tuning.
Network interface
This function is in charge of managing interfaces with RNC:
• Physical layer management (configuration, alarm reporting)
• Layer 2 (IMA, switching, etc.)
The 9100 MBO1 supports the following types of transport on the Iub interface:
• ATM
• Hybrid ATM / IP
• Native IP
Configuration/supervision
This function is in charge of:
• Module configuration and supervision
• Inventory information reporting
• Plug-and-play management
The remote inventory functionality provides the UMTS OAM access to determine the
composition of the Node B. The remote inventory is performed by the xCCM-U for the
following modules:
• xCEMs-U, with their number
• TRDUs, with their number
• Fan rack
• IEAM
• LPPCM
Synchronization
This function is in charge of retrieving highly stable radio frequency from either network
interface or optional GPS receiver.
The 9100 MBO1 can be synchronized through the following means:
• E1/T1 PCM link (standard mechanism)
The E1/T1 link used for synchronization does not carry any data traffic.
• Local GPS receiver
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
January 2011
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
In the GPS-based synchronization solution, the xCCM-U module is connected to a
GPS smart antenna/receiver that provides GPS synchro source (Pulse Per Second
(PPS) synchro input from the antenna).
• IEEE 1588v2 Precision Time Protocol (PTP)
The PTP-based synchronization solution relies on time servers connected to the Node
B through the Ethernet network.
Note: This synchronization mechanism only applies to native IP Node B.

9100 MBO1 basic characteristics 9100 MBO1 external interfaces
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
9100 MBO1 external interfaces

The 9100 MBO1 platform is equipped with six main types of external interface:
• E1/T1 network interface (Iub)
• Radio interface
• Alarm / remote control interfaces
• Power supply interface (AC or DC)
• User equipment
Network interface
The 9100 MBO1 supports three modes of Iub transport:
• ATM
All Iub traffic (OAM, NBAP signaling, R99, HSPA) is carried over ATM/E1(T1).
E1 link complies with ITU G703/G704. T1 link is based on ANSI standard.
The raw data rate between Node B and RNC can rise up to 15.872 Mbit/s (E1) or
12.288 Mbit/s (T1). Depending on the data flow, ATM AAL2 and AAL5 are used on
the above physical link through IMA. The IMA framing provides for physical link
performance monitoring and management.
In the case of a 120-ohm network, the only equipment needed to ensure the PCM
connection is the 120-ohm PCM cable.
In the case of a 75-ohm network, it is necessary to have baluns (two baluns per PCM)
to ensure adaptation from the 120 ohm of the Node B to the 75 ohm of the customer
network. Four types of baluns can be used: BNC, 1.6/5.6, SMZ type 43, or BNC to
RJ-45.
• Hybrid ATM/IP
An IP-based Iub transport is used for HSPA traffic whereas an ATM-based Iub
transport is used for the remaining Iub traffic (R99, OAM and NBAP signaling). The
I/B HSPA traffic can also be carried on the ATM link if the IP link is lost (hybrid Iub
resiliency between ATM and IP).
The hybrid Iub interface requires an xCCM module (xCCM-4E1 or xCCM-GE
hardware configuration).
• Native IP
With native IP Iub transport, you can choose to carry all Iub traffic (OAM, NBAP
signaling, R99, HSPA) on an IP over Ethernet transport.
The native Iub interface requires an xCCM module (xCCM-U-GE hardware
configuration).
The xCCM-U front panel provides the Iub connectivity:
• xCCM-U-4E1: one Fast Ethernet port and two 4-E1/T1 connectors
• xCCM-U-GE: two Gigabit Ethernet ports and one 4-E1/T1 connector
Radio interface
The radio interface consists of up to 12 RF ports (six in the basic configuration) which
correspond to the connection to main and diversity antennas for up to six sectors (three in
the basic configuration).

TRDU/RRH mixity
The xCCM-U front panel provides connectivity for six CPRI cables:
• Up to six TRDUs can be connected (electrical connections).
• For higher sectorization (three local sectors and three remote sectors), it is also
possible to connect up to three TRDUs and three RRHs (in a two-carrier configuration
maximum).
In this mixity case, the connections (electrical for TRDUs, optical for RRHs) must be
done according to the following figure.
Figure 4-12 TRDU/RRH mixity support on xCCM-U board
The SFP cages supporting the connection with the RRHs must be equipped with optical
transceivers. These optical transceivers must be provisioned according to the optical
interface available on the RRH (Multi-Mode (MM) or Single-Mode (SM), dual or single
fiber).
The distance between the Node B and the RRH determines the optical mode (MM or
SM):
• MM dual fiber is used for short distance (up to 500 m): one fiber carries the downlink
signal and a second one the uplink signal.
• SM single fiber is used for long distance (up to 20 km): one single fiber carries both
downlink and uplink signals.

Transmitter Receiver Duplexer Unit (TRDU)

The TRDU module is a complete UMTS Radio Equipment designed to operate in the full
UMTS FDD band I (2100/1900 MHz band). It manages functionalities between base
band CPRI interface and Radio Frequency (RF) air interface.
The 9100 MBO1 is equiped with the TRDU60-21 variant, that delivers 60W nominal
composite output power at module level, and supports up to four adjacent frequency
carriers at 20 MHz instantaneous bandwidth:
• 60W x 1 frequency carrier
• 30W x 2 frequency carriers
Main functions
The TRDU module integrates the following three functions in a single module:
• Transceiver
• Multi-carrier power amplifier
• Duplexer/filter
The TRDU60–21 module can manage up to four adjacent carriers in UMTS Band I
(2110-2170 MHz in downlink; 1920-1980 MHz in uplink) with the following
characteristics:
• Downlink: one transmit chain supporting up to two adjacent UMTS carriers (carrier
spacing between 4.6 MHz and 5.2 MHz)
• Uplink: dual receive chain in a main/diversity arrangement supporting two adjacent
carriers
RF air interface is supported through two antenna connections:
• One duplexed antenna connection supporting transmit and receive main paths
(Antenna Main)
• One single antenna connection supporting receive diversity path (Antenna Div).
Base band interface is supported through two CPRI links, support of CPRI rate 2 (1.2288
Gbps) and HW ready for CPRI rate 3 (2.45 Gbps), for daisy chaining or dual slave
(UMTS + LTE) connection.
The TRDU module includes a DC/DC converter for the -48 V DC power supply
conversion.
The TRDU module incorporates a Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) meter to
monitor RF mismatching between antenna and TRDU main antenna connection. This
VSWR meter monitors Return loss at antenna main port connection. Two VSWR
thresholds are monitored, corresponding to two alarm levels reported on CPRI interface.
The TRDU module also provides an Antenna Interface Standard Group (AISG)
functionality.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
January 2011
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The following figure illustrates the internal architecture of the TRDU module.
Figure 4-18 TRDU internal architecture
The TRDU module can be used in different modes regarding antenna system, depending
on Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA) use and/or AISG Antenna Line Device (ALD) use:
• No TMA mode
Antenna outputs and antenna(s) are directly connected through RF feeders.
• TMA mode
An additional amplifier is added on each antenna branch in order to compensate
feeder loss on uplink path.
Two sub-modes with TMA can be used:
– TMA UMTS mode: in this mode, the TMA is powered and monitored from the
TRDU module.
– TMA Mix mode: in this mode, the TRDU module manages only extra gain on
uplink paths introduced by the TMA. This mode can be used in case of antenna
sharing with another system (the TMA is powered and monitored from this
system), or in case of AISG TMA (the TMA is powered and monitored by the
AISG primary device).

Internal battery backup

Overview
Internal batteries can optionally be hosted in the AC version of the 9100 MBO1 cabinet.
They provide 90 mn backup time with three TRDU fill power.
Main functions
The optional long backup time internal batteries are four 12 FIT 90 batteries. They are
connected in series to provide -48 V DC. They are plugged on the 48 V bus of the PSU
DDU. Battery charge is made under PSU management at power up, when rectifiers DC
output ramp up is performed.
In order to optimize the batteries backup time when this option is selected, the CCU
provides a floating voltage to the batteries depending on the temperature. The batteries
include a self disconnection feature at extreme voltage discharge.
The following figure illustrates the internal battery backup distribution system
architecture.

9100 MBO1 cooling and heating system presentation

Overview
The 9100 MBO1 equipment operates in a temperature-controlled environment. The
internal temperature of enclosures is regulated with a combination of heater, heat
exchanger and cooling fans.
The 9100 MBO1 cooling and heating system includes the following components:
• Cooling fans dedicated to the 9326 d2U V2 (see “9326 d2U V2 fan rack (48V)”
(p. 4-22))
• Cooling fans dedicated to the TRDU sub-rack (see “TRDU sub-rack Cooling Unit
(TRCU)” (p. 4-36))
• Direct Air Cooling system (DAC) installed inside the door (see “Direct Air Cooling
system (DAC9)” (p. 4-61))
• Heater installed on the floor of the 9100 MBO1 cabinet (see “9100 MBO1 heater”
(p. 4-66))
Heating is provided by the heater if the internal air temperature is below 10°C. Above this
temperature, module cooling is provided by the fans. If the temperature increases above
20°C, the DAC switches on. When the temperature rises further, the DAC fan speed
increases. The DAC transfers heat from the cabinet interior to the outside air
environment.

Direct Air Cooling system (DAC9)

Overview
The DAC9 is used in the 9100 MBO1 to maintain the correct air environment within the
cabinet using fresh air cooling.
The DAC9 is mounted on the inside panel of the 9100 MBO1 door. It cools the internal
air by transferring heat to the outside environment.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
January 2011
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The following figure shows the main components of DAC9.
Figure 4-33 DAC9 main components
The heat gathered in the heat sink cassette is transferred to the outside environment by the
air stream in the outer compartment. The outside air is drawn into the outer compartment
by the outer fan.
The DAC9 consists of metal boxes with an air inlet and an air outlet in the front side. In
these cut-outs filter mats are mounted.
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
January 2011
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The DAC system uses fresh air to cool the equipment inside of the cabinet.
The ambient air is drawn by fans through the hydrophobic filter mat and blown into the
cabinet through cut-outs below the subracks. There it arises to the top of the cabinet and
leaves it by the air outlet. The air outlet is protected against intrusion of water and insects
by a filter mat and an additional fly screen.
Blower rotation control

The temperature-controlled regulation of blower rotation is contained in a control unit
which is assembled inside an inner circuit. The control of blowers is an internal function
of the direct air cooling module.
When the internal temperature reaches 30°C, the fans switch on and operate at 1500 rpm
speed. When the internal temperature reaches 35°C and is below 55°C, the fan speed
increases linearly up to 2500 rpm. As the temperature rises further, fan speed increases up
to maximum speed of 2900 rpm.
Temperature sensor
The temperature sensor is mounted on the controller PBA.
Failure of the temperature sensor causes the following response:
• All blowers rotate at full specified speed.
• Alarm occurs, red LED is lit.
The response can be delayed up to 15 seconds after the failure occurs.
Filter mats
The inlet filter is a cassette consisting of a frame mounted on the door containing a filter
mat. The filter mat is made of hydrophobic material but not gas proof.
The outlet fleece filter mat is additional protected by a fly screen.
Alarm
There is one alarm output per cooling unit. An alarm is raised when:
• At least one blower fails
• Temperature sensor/plug disconnected or short circuited
• The controller is faulty
• Temperature exceeds 70°C
• Temperature drops below -60°C (sensor failure)
The response can be delayed up to 15 seconds after the failure occurs.
LED
An alarm indication is implemented by means of a visible red LED located on the lid
(inner circuit side).
The red LED is lit in case of an alarm.

Test Port
The test port allows the connection of an external temperature simulator (variable
resistor) setting a temperature value to check the blower operation depending on the
temperature.
RS232
The RS232 port allows the connection of an external terminal to readout the fan speed.

9100 MBO1 hardware description AISG Tower Mounted Amplifier (AISG TMA)
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
AISG Tower Mounted Amplifier (AISG TMA)

Introduction
The AISG TMA is used if the cable length between the cabinet and the associated antenna
is long.
The AISG TMA is mounted as close as possible to the antenna.
Main functions
The AISG TMA allows to decrease the overall noise level by amplifying the received RF
signal.
In UMTS 2100, the AISG TMA 2100 input/output (from the Node B) is used for
transmission and reception for main path or diversity path. One AISG TMA 2100 is used
per sector.
The AISG TMA provides an AISG feed-through feature that facilitates the
implementation of the RETA solution, eliminating the need of an extra cable between the
Node B and the antenna for carrying the RETA signals. The AISG TMA includes a
receiver amplifier on each downlink path. In addition, the AISG TMA acts as an AISG
LOC, and provides AISG RS485 connectivity to the other ALDs (mainly RET antenna).
The AISG TMA is a dual-mode TMA, that can be used:
• In AISG mode
• In standard mode
The choice between the two modes is done at OMC, through the TmaAccessType
parameter:
• TmaAccessType = tmaMix for AISG mode
• TmaAccessType = tmaUmtsonly for standard mode
The AISG TMA is managed as a passive component by the TRDU. The AISG TMA is
active in reception only.
The AISG TMA hardware consists of the following components:
• A pole fixing system
• An AISG TMA module
Pole fixing system

The pole fixing system provides better security to the mast designed for one-man
easy-installation requirements, compatible with pole diameters between 48 and 110 mm.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
AISG TMA module
The AISG TMA is composed of the following devices:
• A pass-band filter
• A Low Noise Amplifier (LNA)
All the external RF connectors are standard female 7/16 connectors.
The AISG TMA provides the following connectors:
• The "ANT 0" and "ANT 1" connectors, which allow connection to the antennas (Main
and Diversity).
• The "NodeB 0" and "NodeB 1" connectors, which allow connection to the Node B.
• The AISG connector, which provides connection to the RCU through an AISG cable.
DC power
AISG TMA in non AISG mode: +12 V dual branches power supply (from TRDU antenna
connector).
AISG TMA in AISG mode: +24 V single branch power supply (from main TRDU
antenna connector) delivered by the CCU.
TMA alarms
The TMA alarms are monitored by the TRDUs. If the TMA is faulty, this is reported to
the OMC as a TRDU fault and the impacted cells are notified to the RNC.
TMA alarms in AISG mode are monitored by the AISG CCU and sent through site LAN
interface.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Remote Electrical Tilt Automatic (RETA)

This section describes the Alcatel-Lucent RETA solution, based on Kathrein components.
Main functions
The RETA feature allows to adjust remotely the antenna tilt from the OMC (over IP),
through the Node B.
Hardware description of the RETA system

The RETA system consists in the following devices:
• A controller, named Central Control Unit (CCU)
The CCU must be installed in the 19-inch 6U user space of the 9100 MBO1, and
linked to the xCCM-U module via the Ethernet input.
• Motors, named Remote Control Unit (RCU), plugged on each antenna
One RCU is required per Xpolar antenna (Main and Diversity). Three RCUs are
required for a three-sector configuration.
The RCUs can be daisy-chained (typical use: two Xpolar antennas per sector with two
daisy-chained RCUs).
The CCU provides three RS485 AISG outputs to AISG antenna network via TRDU and
feeders. The RCU is connected to the AISG TMA or a smart bias tee is needed at antenna
level to connect the RCU.
In the 9100 MBO1, the CCU module is connected to the xCCM-U module via the
Ethernet 10base T link (Site LAN).
The CCU module is powered in -48 V DC (power cable from the "J2 AUX" connector of
the TRDU ICO module).
The following figure shows the CCU front panel.
Figure 4-42 CCU front panel
The CCU front panel provides the following connectors:

• One "ALARM INTERFACE" connector (9-pin D-SUB female connector), used for
connection to the IEAM front panel ("ALARM 2" connector)
• One "RS232" connector (9-pin D-SUB male connector), used for connection to a
modem or a laptop
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
January 2011
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
• One "ETHERNET" connector (RJ-45 type connector), used for connection to the
xCCM-U board ("Port 1")
• Three 8-pin circular female connectors, used for AISG connection to the TRDUs
("AISG IN" connector on TRDU front panel)
• One DC power connector, used for connection to the TRDU ICO module ("J2 AUX"
connector on TRDU ICO front panel)
• One AC power supply interface
The configuration management, fault management and control of the CCU are performed
through the IP network, enabling operation at OMC level.
The RETA option is AISG-compliant.
AISG RETA solution

The AISG RETA solution offers the capability to run the AISG signals through the
feeders and no more through an additional long AISG cable, making easier the installation
on site.
The following figure shows a three-sector configuration with TMA in AISG mode.

9100 MBO1 hardware description 75-ohm kit
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
75-ohm kit
Description
The PCM cables are connected to the customer DDF. This distribution frame is a
connection point between the PCM cable from the Node B and the transmission network.
For a 120-ohm telecommunication network, only the 120-ohm PCM cable is needed for
PCM connection.
For a 75-ohm telecommunication network, it is necessary to have baluns (two per PCM)
to ensure adaptation from the 120 ohm of the Node B to the 75 ohm of the customer
network. The 120/75 ohm adaptation baluns should be secured as close as possible to the
specific distribution frame. Four types of baluns can be used: BNC, 1.6/5.6, SMZ type 43,
or BNC to RJ-45.
The following figure shows the four types of baluns available.
